Kang Ha-neul and Go Min-si Stir Up Kitchen Romance in New K-Drama Delight

For the first time ever, a television drama will be officially screened at the Jeonju International Film Festival (JIFF)—and it's none other than 'Tastefully Yours', starring Kang Ha-neul and Go Min-si.

On April 9, the JIFF Organizing Committee announced that Tastefully Yours has been officially invited for a special screening at the 26th edition of the film festival, marking the first time a TV drama has received an official invitation to the event.

🍽️ About the Drama: A Taste of Love in Jeonju

Tastefully Yours is a growth romance that centers on a wealthy chaebol heir who tries to take over a small local restaurant as part of a corporate succession plan—only to fall for the lone chef running a no-sign, one-table eatery in the heart of Jeonju.

Kang Ha-neul (who starred in the global Netflix hit 'Squid Game 2') plays the ambitious but emotionally inexperienced heir, while Go Min-si (star of Netflix series 'Sweet Home') stars as the passionate and independent chef. Supporting cast includes Kim Shin-rok and Yoo Su-bin. The project is led by creator Han Jun-hee, known for Chinatown and Hit-and-Run Squad, with Park Dan-hee directing and Jung Soo-yoon writing the script.

🎬 Shot in Jeonju, Debuting in Jeonju

True to its title and theme, Tastefully Yours is deeply rooted in the flavors and culture of Jeonju, Korea’s culinary capital. The drama was entirely filmed on location, highlighting not only the city’s food scene but also its ambiance and charm.

Episodes 1 and 2 will be screened on May 4 during the festival, followed by a Q&A session with director Park Dan-hee and the main cast. Later that day at 5 p.m., fans can catch the stars again during an outdoor “Cinema Talk” stage event.

📺 Streaming Details

After its world premiere at JIFF, Tastefully Yours will officially launch on May 12 at 10 p.m. KST via: Genie TV, ENA, and Netflix.
